No I'm Michelangelo, and so's my wife.
Given you username and the life of Brian reference......thought you would have been Biggus Dickus?


Oops thought it was Dixie that said this, therefore reference to username would make sense.....must learn to read.

I imagine Kane and Rooch acting in an All The President's Men style film where they play Woodward and Bernstein-esque journalists uncovering and exposing a huge AFL cover up.
Then it goes all Inception when they find out the Port Adelaide Football Club was established in 1876 by Leigh Whicker's great-great grandfather.

Kane and Rooch's Excellent Adventure - they travel back to 1990 to try and stop the Crows from being formed.

Only to learn that without the Crows Rucci's raison détre ceases to exist and he finally vanishes into a puff of his own irrelevance.

Hah like in 'Back to the Future' when Marty sees himself erased from the family photo at the Enchantment Under The Sea dance? Rooch would be able to see through his hands whilst feeling faint.

Surprise, surprise Rooch has a massive whine on his Five AA segment about the father son rule, so predictable.
What was his argument?

I now dislike this version of the F/S rule, despite lobbying the AFL for the changes that, as a result, now see Borlase ineligible. :drunk:

Suck a fat one Rooch!

Rucci is so predictable, if you bring up Gibbs he will turn around and say "I only asked the AFL whether the games actually counted", I never tried to stop the Crows from getting Gibbs.

The reality is that everyone knows that it might have taken 10 years, but the karma bus has finally come for Rucci due to his meddling in the Gibbs affair.

Also funny too how no one on the Port board has mentioned that the whole Gibbs fiasco and Rucci (and possibly Port Adelaide) taking it to the AFL has now created this problem for Borlase. Once again it's apparently the AFL being out for them, no one has the guts to face up and admit the truth that their club and Rucci is actually where the blame should be directed to.

Basically that he doesn’t think it’s right that there’s a father son rule for SANFL players to end up at Adelaide or Port unless they’re Port Fathers then it should happen.
NOW he thinks this rule needs changing and ruled out altogether or an allowance made if a father falls just short ie Gibbs and Borlase, where there’s a grading of the F/S discount for clubs to draft them.

Wank f***ing wank.

So Port should get SANFL F/S, but not the Crows? Sure, that sounds fair. :drunk:

As for the second bit, what's the point in having a games played requirement if you're not actually going to stick to it because someone "got close". Isn't that the whole point of a requirement? Maybe we should ask the AFL for a 2017 flag, because we got close?
